    Taxing corps is the same as taxing people, there’s no difference other than whos books it ends up on. Companies are all owned by people (eventually)

    If you want to tax wealthy people who hold the stocks, tax them directly.

    Let the companies generate value free from taxes on their operation. Of course we should charge them taxes for things like land and resource use, and force them to meet human, environmental, and safety standards.

      I like this better. It means fully worker owned corporations get to keep more of their earnings because it’s more spread out. Discourages wealth concentration.
